Do you mean errors based on the analyzer's parsing failing, or errors
indicated via the DNS protocol? The latter are logged in the DNS log file.
For the former, when I run on the file all I get in the weird file is IP
checksums. If I use -C to ignore these then I get a bunch of DNS log file
output that seems reasonable, so I'm not immediately seeing the problem.
